BV421 Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T
BV421 Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T
Flow cytometric analysis of Cardiac Troponin T in mouse cardiomyocytes differentiated in vitro. The C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line (ATCC CRL-1772) was cultured for 5 days in low-serum conditions for induction of cell differentiation, fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), and permeabilized with BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723). The cells were stained with either BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562438, dashed line) or BD Horizon BV421 Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T (solid line). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD LSR™ II flow cytometer system.
BV421 Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T
Immunohistofluorescent analysis of cardiac troponin T expression by cells within C57BL/6 mouse heart. A mouse heart cryosection (5 µm) was fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100, blocked with 5% goat serum and 1% BSA diluted in 1× PBS, and stained with BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Cardiac Troponin T (Cat. No. 565618, pseudo-colored green). The section was then counterstained with BD Pharmingen™ DRAQ5™ (Cat. No. 564903, pseudo-colored red). The images were captured on a standard four-laser confocal microscope. Original magnification, 40×.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with BD Horizon BV421 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon BV421 were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel.  Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation.  The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).

13-11

The 13-11 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Troponin T type 2 (cardiac), encoded by the gene TNNT2. Troponin T is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which also encompasses troponin C and troponin I. This complex regulates muscle contraction in skeletal and cardiac muscle in response to alterations in calcium levels.  Troponin T type 2 is solely found in the heart, and genetic alterations in the TNNT2 gene are associated to a series of heart disorders in humans, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular noncompaction. Cardiac Troponin T can be used as a marker for the identification of cardiomyocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells.

BV421
The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
